1. Connections and Installation Tips 1 Connect the RED wire to a constant 12 volt source This can be the memory wire for the head unit check to see if the radio is code protected before cutting or unplugging the memory wire or the 12 volt battery terminal of the amplifier Connect the BLACK wire to ground The radio chassis or amplifier ground terminal are gener ally good locations for this connection The BLUE wire should be connected to the am plifiers or signal processors that are being con trolled be the Remote Power Adapter It supplies a 12 volt output rated at 1 amp with a one to three second delay when triggered by signal on the GRAY wire The GRAY wire may be connected to any wire from the head unit that measures above 5 volts when the unit is on and below 3 volts when the unit is shut off This includes power antennas amplifier remote outputs typically 12 volts but may be as low as 5 volts in some OEM systems or speaker outputs A high powered deck will normally supply between 6 7 volts DC at the speaker output this is suf ficient to trigger the Remote Power Adapter Use this method for applications where the head unit lacks any dedicated switched outputs or it is easier to access a speaker terminal The GREEN LED built into the ORRPA lights after the delay period indicating that the remote output is triggered ORRPA 2010 03 Remote Power Adapter Wiring Guide Model ORRPA2. The trigger delay is controlled by input volt age on the GRAY wire A low voltage input will increase the delay to a maximum of three seconds at 12 volts the delay drops to about one second Note If the adapter is being triggered by a speaker output it will stay on along with the devices it controls for a short period after the head unit is switched off This is due to the stored energy of a typical chip output and can not be avoided To prevent turn off transient noise we recommend that the adapter be trig gered by a dedicated remote output of the head unit whenever possible By combining two or more adapters sequen tial turn on of several devices can be achieved This will permit a signal processor to power up after the head unit followed by the amplifier s thereby preventing turn on transients in the signal chain from reaching the speakers The Remote Power Adapter will drive up to 1 amp of load at 12 volts If multiple devices to be switched exceed the 1 amp limit use a second adapter For single device loads that exceed 1 amp a small relay DEI part 8616 can be used The Remote Power Adapter is a better way to switch audio components since it eliminates the large inductive voltage peaks that a relay gener ates 12V Constant RED GND BLACK 12V out BLUE Signal Input from Head Unit GRAY LIMITED 90 DAY ACCESSORY 1 YEAR CAPACITOR WARRANTY This product is sold with a LIMITED 90 day accessory 1
